clean cosy apartment in downtown
It was a very pleasant experience, the room was located in a very convenient place, you can find supermarket, nice restaurants all in walking distance. The house was clean and cozy, Selma was so nice and always replied in a very short period of time~ will come back again if it is possible~ 5-star recommend!

Nice, bright and quiet studio, close to downtown.
A very pleasant, bright flat in a quiet street. Just perfect! Everything was available, well furnished. Helga was always available and responsive. I would recommend this place!

Studio apartment in Reykjavik
We've stayed here twice now and again it's absolutely amazing, the scenery, the apartment, the host all amazing and nothing to complain about. one of the best places I've ever stayed at.

Ocean view apartment near city centre!
Me, my wife and our son stayed at Ingiberg’s place for 6 nights on our trip to Iceland. The apartment was very easy to find and we were able to park the car in the allocated bay (inside the garage). It is slightly outside of the main town but providing you don’t mind a walk (35 minutes) like us then it is not a problem at all. The apartment was nicely furnished and had everything we needed. Tv and sound system were great for the evenings. Ingiberg was very responsive on messages and even alerted us when the northern lights were on show. Would definitly recommend staying at the apartment to anyone visiting Iceland.

Skalafell-Cosy apartment, spectacular surroundings
I don't know where to start. We were tired from an overnight flight and when we got to the apartment we felt so relaxed. Disa is a wonderful hostess and it was such a pleasure to have several conversations with her. She is so energetic and friendly. Skagafell was so comfortable to be in. Phenomenal bed, plenty of hot water and very nice temperature inside. Several times we saw horses go through and saw several herds as we approached our place. You can't go wrong renting this unique place.

Apartment by the sea - with breath taking views.
New, well stocked accommodations with a gorgeous view. Underground parking was a huge plus. Some construction in the area and not much around. But the stay was absolutely perfect.

Open and bright apartment in a quiet outdoor gem.
My family and I (5 adults) had a great stay there. Hjalmar and his wife greeted us when we arrived at the house. He was very responsive and flexible with our check-in. The place was clean and comfortable. It had everything. We would stay there again. Highly recommend!

Central loft with amazing views
Stella’s apartment is a great place to stay. It is spacious and very comfortable. Comfy beds and sofas and well equipped kitchen. Super location near the water front and close by all central attractions and shops. Stella was very helpful throughout. Highly recommend

Motorhome Iceland, Rv Iceland camper in Iceland
Can’t say enough about how easy and responsive David was. His motorhome was perfect for our trip and he was able to answer questions within minutes. We would not hesitate to rent from him again.

Cozy two storey house in Seltjarnarnes
Such a wonderfully cozy place in a great location! We loved being able to see the Northern Lights from the hot tub after a long day of exploring on the Golden Circle. House was super easy to get to - close to everything, but far enough away to be quiet and peaceful. We were able to beat the traffic and walk to catch multiple sunsets at the Grotta Lighthouse. Host's directions were super detailed for any and everything one would need to know and they were very responsive when we did have additional questions.

Beach House in Hvalfjordur
Svana’s place is the perfect beach house for four. In addition there is a separate little extremely charming guesthouse for two more. The views are stunning in both! We loved watching seals out of the kitchen window and enjoyed the sunny interiors.

A quiet, charming house by Reykjavik harbor
Loved our stay here! It felt very cozy and homey, and the location was perfect-very walkable to everything in Reykjavik. For parking, we stayed in the alley out of the way of other cars and had no other issues. My one comment would be that the hot water smell was quite sulfuric, but I think that is true of most places in Reykjavik and surrounding it. Overall though, I would love to be back-the bed was super comfortable too!

Ocean view Townhouse
What a great place. We really enjoyed our stay here. Lots of room for everyone and such a great location - not far out of the city but very peaceful and beautiful. The favourite of the Air Bnb's we booked for our Iceland trip!

Ocean Property on the South Coast
We stayed wishing to catch the Northern Lights and we were lucky enough to do so each night and be there for a huge solar storm. We ventured out the first night and after that realized we were able to stay comfy at our airbnb and see them both in the front yard and backyard. The house was spacious and our children 7 & 1 loved the books and toys available. We were offered a portable crib and high chair which were convenient. There were plenty of novels for adults and a variety of books on Iceland. There is a washer and large drying rack, dishwasher, and full kitchen which was wonderful since it is a serene spot you can relax and not run down the road 15 minutes for food or coffee. I enjoyed walking the road to the church and admiring the horses next door. The location is remote and going to parks or the city required an hour drive. Our host was gracious and extended our check out which was helpful. Thank you for your hospitality.

Light and Airy Living by the Sea
Gudrun’s home is really lovely. We travelled with little kids and is perfect for families seeking a comfortable and memorable stay. With a well equipped kitchen, it’s easy to prepare home-cooked meals, while the open living spaces offer plenty of room for everyone to relax and unwind. Thoughtful touches, cozy decor, and essentials including crib, washer/dryer, private parking make it an ideal place. The home is a quick drive to the town of Selfoss , and practical location to explore the south coast. The only downside is that there is a cemetery across from the house, but overall a great home. Gudrun is a great host - friendly, responsive, and checked in if we needed anything during our stay. This was the perfect stay for our family and would definitely recommend.

Cozy family home with a hot tub.
Sara’s place felt at home. We were comfortable. With 5 of us, 2 living spaces really helped. We are able to have our own spaces within the house. A relatively new home, fast internet and while it’s was super freezing out there, we were snug as a bug! Would happily return. Great communication too. 👍🏼
Waterfront condo accommodation

Cozy Seaside Apartment with Stunning Bay Views
We had a very comfortable stay & HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place! Host: clear and thoughtful communication. The host made sure the place was well-prepared and comfortable for guests. Location: absolutely perfect for Reykjavík. The apartment is in a quiet, family-friendly building with peaceful views, and just a short drive from everything you need. It’s ideally located for daily hikes and provides easy access to highways—great for exploring Iceland without the hassle of city-center traffic. Also a convenient drive to the airport! The apartment: beautifully designed, nicely furnished, efficient, and minimalist. It had everything we needed: cooking utensils, appliances, dishes, washer/dryer, and a handy air-drying rack (an eco-friendly touch we appreciated). The entertainment area was cozy with a comfy couch and large TV. The bed was a bit snug but still very comfortable. A great base for anyone visiting Reykjavík & Iceland for nature, comfort, and calm!

Ocean View Condo near Sky Lagoon
The apartment was very spacious, clean, comfortable with a lovely view of the little harbor nearby. It provided my son and I with a base to explore many of Iceland's attractions using our car rental. Getting into the city takes about 12 minutes by car and around 45 minute by bus. We opted to cook at home since there's not a lot of restaurants nearby. Generally speaking this was a fantastic place to stay and made our whole week in Iceland stress free and relaxing. The apartment also has great water pressure and lots of warm water!

VIEW! Harbor apartment w/ocean and mountain view
It was a very beautiful flat, spectacular view and had everything we needed and more. The location is perfect to much of the tourist spots in Reykjavik and bus stop 4 is incredibly close which was so helpful. Otherwise, a few buses only stopped at 5 or 3 which are both easily walkable. As many others said, there were welcome snacks and drinks which was very thoughtful and above and beyond. Lots of cute restaurants across the street and downstairs within the same building. Would 100% recommend to anyone!

Downtown Harbor Apartment with Balcony
Harbor Apartment was a great place to stay! Walking distance to all the prime sights made it convenient, as well as the many restaurants. So convenient!! Host(s) were so responsive, as well as the information shared about the area, the apartment and the restaurant suggestions made our visit perfect! We definitely will return one day!

Bright Apartment With Ocean View & Near Downtown
The host was really communicative and accommodating. Her home is clean and has everything. We enjoy our stay and would recommend!

Reykjavik west town by the sea
Snorri and Svava’s Airbnb was so cozy, clean, and in a great location near the city and next to the water. They were so responsive and friendly! I would stay again!

Lovely 1 bedroom condo next to Sky Lagoon
It is a beautiful space, quiet, and feels just like home. The amenities were excellent and made our experience in Iceland that much better! Highly recommend!

Modern & fully equipped first floor apartment
We enjoyed our stay at Eydis’s place. It is a beautifully decorated, very large apartment. A great value for the cost based on our other accommodations in Iceland. Eydis was very responsive as a host and helped answer questions we had on arrival. The apartment itself was in a nice complex, and very quiet which is a top priority for us. We typically avoid first floor apartments for fear of noise from neighbors above, but we never heard anything from nearby units our entire stay. Thanks Eydis for hosting us!
